Before applying, make sure that the forum account name you're registering matches your nation ruler name. Yes, that means make a forum account. Using your nation name instead isn't preferred, but still acceptable for the name.

To apply for membership, post a new topic under this forum with the following information:

On the topic, name it (Player Name) Membership, Example: Jemmm Membership

Nation Ruler: Nation Name: Nation URL Link:

Nation Strength:Are you on Brown team?:List any Previous Alliances:Who recruited you:Are you involved in any wars?:

Do you understand you cannot attack nationswithout government approval (asking Burnt)?:Do you understand breaking this rule could lead to you getting booted from the AA?:

Do you agree to the following statement?:

I pledge allegiance to the Atlantic Sphere Initiative and will obey the charter first and the orders of the leadership second. IF the government wishes myself to pay back any financial aid, I will do so before resigning and leaving the alliance.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Someone will be along to review your application so please watch it. An inactive applicant that does not respond to us will make a poor impression. Please also read the mask message if you are accepted.

Again, please also understand that we do not allow you to attack members of other alliances or protected nations if you join.

To grow your nation as quickly as possible, we expect you to participate in trade circles and tech deals.

If you have trouble with this, message me in-game. I cannot respond to someone messaging me without an account.

How to configure your profile

Configuring your profileYou will automatically be sent emails for private messages, replies in topics you've posted, etc. If you do not want this, configure your forum account.

You have to fix this yourself by going to your profile, then go to preferences. You will find how to get to your profile at the top under the Atlantic Sphere Union forum banner.

Put the following checked as no:

Always notify me of replies :Sends an e-mail when someone replies to a topic you have posted in. This can be changed whenever you post.Notify by mail when a new message has arrived in your in-box :Warn me of PM from a PM mailing :Sending of an email whenever a private message from a PM mailing has been sent to you by the administrator of the forum or a moderator.

etc.

The point is that you need to configure your profile if you don't want to put up with it. At the moment, that's all we can do.

From the time you post an application to the time you potentially gain academy access to gaining membership you have 7 days for each. I will better explain below.

When you decide to post an application we expect applicants to continuously follow up on the application. If you fail to do so a message will be sent to the applicant 2 days before the week is over. [Example: Sunday you post an application I won't count it which means you have all the way until next Sunday. Friday you would be notified In-Game for this case.](I don't count the day you post your application.)

If you were to be masked to the academy you will also be given a week from the time you're masked and 7 days after that. (I don't count the masking date in.)

The way the forum works is that it sends notifications through email, so if you have a phone or always check your email you will know what is going on in your application. If you don't follow up on the application or academy you will be removed from the alliance and will have to go through everything again which will limit your chances.
